  During the modernisation of Muscat, people's spirits seemed to harden and dry up, and one day the female jinn just disappeared. Where did they go to? Have they all died, are they in hiding after losing out to electricity and cement, to air conditioners and televisions? Has life lost its playfulness and joy without the transformational powers of the jinn? Are life's sweet moments of pleasure and sensual delight no more, now the inhabitants are weighed down with daily chores, boring work, and all the routines apparently necessary for modern life? It seemed so, until a group of enterprising women, all mothers and wives overburdened with one thing after another, decided they had to somehow recover the powers of the lost female jinn. Omani author Huda Hamed recounts the vivid stories Zubayda and her seven friends tell each other, revealing secrets until then suppressed, as on one special night they transform into Cinderellas. Though not searching for a prince, they meet together in Chef Ramon's restaurant on the beach front of Muscat for a few hours of precious independence before midnight comes.

  Just when her life comes crumbling down, she discovers secrets that could shape her future--and heal her past.  
   
  When Edie Gardner's life in New York falls apart, her grandmother Adele "Punk" Cheramie coaxes her back to tiny Bayou du Chêne, Mississippi.

  Punk and her colorful friends introduce Edie to the Trove, a fascinating gallery and antique shop. Like Horn Island's light, The Trove has appeared out of nowhere. Its proprietor, with a gift for discerning his customers' needs, gives Edie a Victorian parlor game that asks players a series of personal questions, which is harmless fun at first. But Edie and her grandmother's circle find that the game has a way of uncovering secrets, including a heartbreak that has haunted one of the women for decades. Banding together, this Southern sisterhood is determined to find answers that will bring healing, hope, and happiness--and maybe explain the transcendent illumination of a wild and windswept barrier island.
